Words of advice:

1. Register with Unisa to learn English Comprehension.
2. That you have been brought up in a township and robbed of the ability to think proactively does not give you authority to genaralise inadvertently without proper reasearch. What do you mean by "most Basotho?" What is the proportion of Basotho that live in Lesotho to those in RSA or any part of the world for that matter to come to this irresponsible conclusion?
3. Basotho are very proud of their achievements, work hard for their keep and hence need not depend on the Government for hand-outs. That's what leading economies do. You are one of many burdens to the RSA economy. Why do you think the Rand is sinking so rapidly?
4. Last, what kind of problems are you referering to in Lesotho? Do we have problems? What constitutes them?

Let me give you a free lesson. Basotho migrate to RSA for better living conditions or better carrer prospects not because we have problems in Lesotho. Wouldn't you do the same if faced with the same challenges? Of course not, because you are stupid, uneducated and think that the only way out of a live's challenge is through a Government grant.

What a despicable product of Bantu Education!

thank you for the free lessons, better living conditions, and better career prospects. Do you not think it is indeed a problem that with the wisdom surpassing that of Solomon, you cannot create better living conditions for yourself?
Bantu Education, of which I am regretably a product of, taught me that you say: life's challenge not live's challenge. What a shame, product of 'Royal Education'!
Having said nothing with so many words,one can conclude from your hard laboured defective presentation that you still acknowledge your unenviable position.

Who are you to decide that people should be deported? Do you know the reasons why they are here? Ke eng e betere eo o nahanang hore South Africa can offer to Lesotho should they be part of it? Do not insult my people please. You mention that Basotho live and work in South Africa - that's because they are well educated and therefore bring knowledge to the country. Try sticking with us, you might learn a thing or two!

Government grant - You remind me how often children of unemployed father would angrily remark at the children of a flourishing, hardworking father of how spoilt they are.need i remind your well-travelled and widely read self, on how even today, white americans ridicule black americans as affirmative action appointees lacking merit? what wrong is there if our beautiful country, with all its resources can take care of us, by providing free housing,social grants and so forth, which the country of the wise hardworking people cannot afford? remember you cannot afford not because you do not want!
nice heh!(sorry i have a limited vocabulary because of bantu education, but hopefully the crux of the matter has been conveyed to you.he,he,he,he,he,)

Keneilwe, your power analytical mind failed to recognize the growing mobility of professional people worldwide in search of better standard of living. The fact is, Basotho professionals have also come to SA for the same reason. SA needs us as much as we need employment in SA. Imagine what would happen to projects like Gautrain if all Basotho engineers moved back home.

Please don’t make your ‘bantu education’ an excuse for your ignorance. Instead of providing facts, you`re attacking Litsoinyetso. I doubt this has anything to do with bantu education or powerful analytical mind.

New Zealand and Australia are some of the countries encouraging people to mate by creating lovemaking-cabins at or near frequented places such as parks, clubs etc. They are even inviting Eastern Europe white immigrants to take their citizenship. You were of course going to fault them for getting free and government sponsored......hahahahahaha!le a itlhola batho ba Modimo hle.
